The Boston Housing Authority (BHA), Commonwealth of Massachusetts, invites qualified and experienced Filed Sub-Bidder (FSB) firms to submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) to the BHA Bid Room at 52 Chauncy Street, 6th Floor, Boston, MA 02111 no later than 11:00 AM September 15, 2010.
This Request for Qualifications (RFQ) is the first part of a two-step RFP process as provided in M.G.L. c. 149, §44Dľ. Based on the SOQs received in this Phase I, BHA will select respondents it deems to be prequalified in accordance with the criteria set forth in the RFQ. In Phase 11, the prequalified respondents will be invited to submit filed sub-bids in response to an RFP which BHA anticipates to be issued September 29, 2010.
Only Filed Sub-Bid firms prequalified for this project in Phase I will be permitted to submit bids in Phase II.
The project delivery method for construction will be design-bid-build. The project includes approximately 259,000 gross square feet to serve affordable residential housing needs for the City of Boston. The site of the Project is located at 209 Sumner Street, Boston, MA. Existing conditions include various low-rise and mid-rise buildings constructed of block and plank and wood frame construction with masonry exteriors. Work includes miscellaneous site revisions, exterior envelope repairs and replacements, renovations to common areas and individual units and upgrades to fire protection, HVAC and MEP systems. BHA anticipates work on the project will commence on February 1, 2011 and construction will be completed within 550 calendar days from the date of the notice to proceed to the GC.
BHA is prequalifying the following FSB trades for this project (with estimated costs as indicated):
Roofing & Flashing ($20,000), Acoustical Tile ($20,000),
Only Filed Sub-Bid firms prequalified for this project in Phase I will be permitted to submit bids in Phase II.
At the time a FSB firm submits its SOQ, it must have a DCAM Certification in the Trade Contractor Category for which it is seeking to be prequalified and submit a copy of its Certificate of Eligibility and Update Statement with its SOQ. This required SOQ is different from DCAM Certification, all FSB firms must be prequalified for this project, even if the filed sub-bid firm is already DCAM Certified in the trade category for which it is applying.
The successful respondent must be able to obtain bonding for the estimated construction cost for the sub-trade work. Women and Minority Business participation and minority work force goals will apply to this project.
The RFQ may be downloaded from http://www.comm-pass.com on or after September 1, 2010. After that date, copies may also be obtained for a non-refundable $10.00 fee by contacting the BHA Bid Room at 617-988-4041 or at the address indicated above. Further public notice information regarding the specifics of this project and the prequalification evaluation criteria and selection process is included in the RFQ.
